WQAM 560-AM moves John Renshaw to 10 a.m. slot

WQAM has hired its replacement for Dan Sileo, and the station stayed in-house in doing so.

John Renshaw, who has been hosting weekend shows at WQAM since August, has been moved into the weekday 10 a.m. slot, WQAM program director Jorge Sedano said Wednesday.

The John Renshaw Show will start Monday, following the Joe Rose Show. Alex Donno, who hosts the Miami Hurricanes in-studio game coverage, will be Renshaw's sidekick.

The 10 a.m. spot had been filled by Sileo before he was fired on March 4 after 11 controversial months at the station. The former Miami Hurricanes football player could not be reached for comment Wednesday night.

Sedano said moving Renshaw to weekdays "made a lot of sense."

The move to weekdays brings upon a second era in Miami for Renshaw — at the turn of the century, he was an afternoon host on the now-defunct 1700 WAFN-The Fan. Sedano was his lead-in at The Fan.

"I know how smart, funny, entertaining and self-deprecating he is," Sedano said. "He's everything you want in a sports talk radio show host."

Renshaw has previously worked in Chicago, Louisville, Tallahassee and Kansas City. He's also done national shows for Fox Sports Radio and Sporting News Radio (Now Yahoo! Sports radio).
